A sweet deep red beer, with toffee and caramel notes that would definitely be lord of the manor.

Cask at Lord Burton, Burton-on-Trent. Pours a murky dark brown with minimal cream head. There’s malts and caramel in the aroma, plus some hints of chocolate. In the mouth it is briefly sweet and creamy (if somewhat watery) sour fruitiness swamps it all. Some traces of malts, caramel and blackcurrant can be detected, but overall I think this beer had gone off. REQUIRES A RERATE.
